BOTM 4/08: The Classic Cask

Few whiskies are as shrouded in mystery as The Classic Cask. A quick perusal of the forum suggests that this brand started as a private bottling for a scotch whisky society, selected and bottled by Even Kulsveen at KBD. The brand is a line of extra-aged bourbon and rye whisky, bottled at different stages. The 17 and 20yo bourbons, as well as a 21yo rye have made appearances at past gazebo tables, to generally positive review, but still little is known about the brand itself. Where does the whisky come from, and has it changed sources, like most independent brands, over the years? . Let's take this opportunity to catalog any information out there about the source, availability and bottling iterations, as well as tasting notes and personal experiences with this brand.
